Michael NS Lau

If you've never tasted a cherry pie before or this is the first time you tasted a cherry pie, it's nigh on to impossible to grade the cherry pie. Only after you've eaten many cherry pies from many sources will you truly be able to grade the cherry pie. Mr. Lau is the first lawyer I ever used to su...e anyone for anything. He had to figure out who to sue because Sears had defaulted on a warranty they had sold me for my appliances, but Sears had broken up/bankrupted and it wasn't clear where the responsibility for the defaulted warranty rested in the remaining Sears business. Mr. Lau made it perfectly clear to me that in pursuing the law suit I was risking any money I put into the effort because I very well might not win anything. Mr. Lau figured it out -- Transformco -- and we brought them to court on December 20, 2023, where the judge - Donald McDonough - told us that companies don't honor the warranty because they don't have to (they do it because they can). Therein lies the difficulty; Mr. Lau wasn't working in a fair environment. There is no justice for the American consumer because the law doesn't allow the consumer to win his case; the entire court system seems to be corrupt. The judge probably had some good stock holdings or other bias that ensured Mr. Lau would not come away the big winner. Therefore, I did not recover all of the legal expenses -- probably @ 10% of them. Transformco did have to pay for repair of the refrigerator but not much more.

We are having issues with Chrysler honoring their power train warranty. We needed to find out what are our legal options were. Mr. Lau provided us with excellent, clear, concise and honest advice and recommendations for us to make a better decision during this stressful time. A bonus of using Mr. La...u's advice was his technical knowledge of warranty issues with cars---the core problem I sought legal advice for. Should we not get a favorable solution from Chrysler, we will, again, turn to Mr. Lau for other actions to pursue. Using his service allows us to make a better decision on how to move forward during this stressful time.

We consulted with Mr. Lau regarding a consumer law case. He was extremely knowledgeable and straight to the point. He took plenty of time to understand the case, advised on appropriate course of action and how to make the most efficient use of his time. We decided to hire him and will be moving fo...rward with our case.

Michael Lau represented me when I purchased a car from an auto dealer who had hidden a mechanical problem by cutting out the interior parts of the thermostat. This made the car run temporarily before breaking down within 20 miles of driving it after purchase - because the engine was bad and couldn't ...be fixed. Mr. Lau pursued the case for me during COVID which made it very difficult to get court dates, and then through the closing of the car dealership and the owner filing for personal bankruptcy. He was very helpful and went above and beyond to ensure that the owner of the car dealership was held responsible for committing fraud by getting a judgement against him personally through the county court and then pursuing him through the bankruptcy court. I highly recommend Mr. Lau!

Mr. Lau was recommended to me by the Fairfax Bar Association. I hired Mr. Lau to assist me with a negligent service issue that was not properly resolved between myself and the service company's insurance agent. I was out of pocket and was seeking to cover those expenses/losses and nothing more. Mr. L...au understood my expectations and pursued as such. It took about 5 months to fully resolve, but Mr. Lau was successful at achieving a resolution that I was not able to reach on my own. Mr. Lau is attentive, patient and professionally persistent. I am pleased with the outcome and would hire him again if ever needed.
